1.

In the figure two concentric conducting shells of radius R & 2R are shown. The inner shell is charged with Q and the shell is unchanged. The amount of energy dissipated when the shells are connected by a conducting wire is: A. `(KQ^(2))/(4R)`B. `(kQ^(2))/(2R)`C. `(kQ^(2))/(8R)`D. `(3kQ^(2))/4`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`U_(i)=(KQ^(2))/(2R) U_(t)=(KQ^(2))/(2(2R))`
(whole charge will get transformed to outer sphere)
so heat `=(KQ^(2))/(2(2R)) =(KQ^(2))/(4R)`
2.

Figure shows a solid hemisphere with a charge of 5 nC distributed uniformly through its volume. The hemisphere lies on a plane and point P is located on the plane, along a radial line from the centre of curvature at distance 15 cm. The electric potential at point P due to the hemisphere is: A. 150 VB. 300 VC. 450 VD. 600 V

Answer» Correct Answer - B
By symmetry (it will be half of the potential produces by the full sphere)
`rArr 1/2.(K(2Q))/R=(KQ)/RrArr V=(KQ)/R =(9xx10^(9)xx5xx10^(-9))/(15xx10^(-2)) =300V`
3.

Two coherent monochromatic light beams of intensities I and 4I are superposed. The maximum and minimum possible intensities in the resulting beam areA. 5I and IB. 5I and 3IC. 9I and ID. 9I and 3I

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`I_(max)=(sqrt(I_(1))+sqrt(I_(2)))^(2)=(sqrt(4I)+sqrt(I))^(2)=9I`
`I_("min")=(sqrt(I_(1))-sqrt(I_(2)))^(2)=(sqrt(4I)-sqrt(I))^(2)=I`

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2: is true, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1.C. Statement-1 is true but statement-2 is falseD. Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`theta=(mu_(v)-mu_(R)) A`.
A statement-1 is correct statement-2 is incorrect becomes dispersive power is property of material of prism
5.

Two particles of charge `q_(1)` and `q_(2)` are separated by distance `d` as shown in figure. Chrage `q_(1)` is situarted at the origin. The net electirc field due to the particles is zero at `x = d//4`. With `V = 0` at infinity, the location of a point in terms of `d` on the `x` axis (other at infinfity) at which the elctrical potential due to the two particles is zero, is given by: A. d/4B. 16dC. `-16 d`D. no point on the axis

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`vec(E)` is zero in between the two charges. So both charges must have the same sign.
Therefore, electric potential cannot be zero anywhere on the axis.

8.

A fixed ring of radius R is given a charge q. A charge `q_0` is brought slowly from infinity to the centre of the ring. The wrong statement is-A. work done by external agent in bringing `q_(0)` is `1/(4pi epsilon_(0)). (q q_(0))/R` when charge distribution is uniformB. work done by external agent in bringing `q_(c)` is `1/(4piepsilon_(0)) (q q_(0))/R`C. force on `q_(0)` at the centre is zero, when charge distribution is uniformD. force on `q_(0)` at the central is zero, when one half of the ring has positive charge and other half has negative charge

Answer» Correct Answer - D
The potential of the centre is same whether the charge in uniformly distributed or non-uniformly distributed. Hence statement(1) and (2) are correct.
When charge on one half is +ve and other half is -ve, the field can not be zero, hence force is not zero. Statement-4 is wrong,. hence (4) is the correct option.

1. How can you distinguish the levels of biodiversity from one another?2. Do biological interactions affect the environment? Why? Or why not?3. Explain the importance of biological diversity.4. How do changes in the environment can affect species extinction?5. Distinguish environmental changes that may result in the loss of the species.

Answer»

1. There are three levels of biodiversity:
Genetic diversity: It refers to the variation in gene within a species. …
Species diversity: It refers to the variety of species within a region.
Ecosystem diversity: It include all the species and all abiotic factors characteristic of a region.

2. In ecology, a biological interaction is the effect that a pair of organisms living together in a community have on each other.

The biological interaction involves single-celled microorganisms, including fungi, bacteria, protozoa, viruses, and amoebae, and multicellular organisms, such as earthworms, arachnids, nematodes, and mites.

3. Biodiversity provides functioning ecosystems that supply oxygen, clean air and water, pollination of plants, pest control, wastewater treatment and many ecosystem services. Recreation—many recreational pursuits rely on our unique biodiversity , such as birdwatching, hiking, camping and fishing.

4. Climate change interacts with threats such as habitat loss and overharvesting to further exacerbate species declines. The decline of species and ecosystems can then accelerate climate change, creating a feedback loop that further exacerbates the situation.

Silk is obtained from which of the following stages of the Silk moth ?1. Pupa2. Adult3. Larva4. Caterpillar

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Pupa

The correct answer is Pupa.

  • Female silk moth lays eggs and then the larvae are hatched out of eggs known as caterpillars.
  • They are grown in size and they enter the second stage called pupa where they secrete fibre made up of preteen which when comes in contact with air and it hardens to become silk fibre. 
  • After this, the caterpillar completely covers itself by the fibre and turns into a pupa.
  • This covering is called a cocoon.

  • Silk is a natural protein fibre, some forms of which can be woven into textiles.
  • The protein fibre of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and is produced by certain insect larvae to form cocoons
  • The best-known silk is obtained from the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in captivity (sericulture).
  • The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the triangular prism-like structure of the silk fibre, which allows silk cloth to refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colours.
